The Nashville Predators and the Toronto Maple Leafs meet in NHL action from Scotiabank Arena on Tuesday night.

The Nashville Predators will be out to build on a 4-1 win over the Arizona Coyotes in their last game. Matt Duchene leads the Preds with 16 points including a team-high 9 goals while Mikael Granlund and Roman Josi each have 16 points as well, with Granlund logging a team-high 13 assists while Josi has 6 goals, 10 assists and a team-best +10 plus/minus rating this season. Juuse Saros has seen the majority of Nashville’s work in goal, going 7-4-1 with a 2.17 GAA and a .927 save percentage this season.

The Toronto Maple Leafs will be looking to keep their winning ways going after a 5-4 win over Buffalo in their last game. John Tavares and William Nylander each have a team-high 15 points with Tavares logging a team-high 8 goals and 7 assists while Nylander’s got 7 goals and 8 apples this season. Mitch Marner has 14 points with a team-high 11 assists and Auston Matthews has 12 points split between 6 goals and 6 assists while Morgan Rielly and Alex Kerfoot each have 10 points with Rielly logging 9 assists while Kerfoot has 8 assists and a team-high +5 plus/minus this season. Jack Campbell’s started the bulk of Toronto’s game in goal, going 8-3-1 with a 1.82 GAA and a .939 save percentage this season.

Nashville is 6-1 in their last 7 games as an underdog and 8-2 in their last 10 games overall while the over is 5-2 in their last 7 games as a road underdog. Toronto is 8-1 in their last 9 games overall and 5-1 in their last 6 home games while the under is 8-3 in their last 11 games against the Western Conference.

The plus money could be worth a look as Nashville’s been playing some solid defensive hockey of late. However, the Maple Leafs are just the better team from top-to-bottom when you compare the two side by side and I just think that Toronto edgesout Nashville at home in this one. I’ll lay it and play it with the Leafs here.
